Published October 8, 2024Updated October 30, 2024Source: osv

Details

An issue was discovered in Django v5.1.1, v5.0.9, and v4.2.16. The django.contrib.auth.forms.PasswordResetForm class, when used in a view implementing password reset flows, allows remote attackers to enumerate user e-mail addresses by sending password reset requests and observing the outcome (only when e-mail sending is consistently failing).

pip
Update django to 4.2.16 or later
pip install "django>=4.2.16"
pip
Update django to 5.0.9 or later
pip install "django>=5.0.9"
pip
Update django to 5.1.1 or later
pip install "django>=5.1.1"

After upgrading, run your dependency scanner again to confirm the vulnerability is resolved.
